View 1 RepliesWhen I tried to resize the form, the textboxes and buttons stayed on the top left. I would like to know if there is a way to make them stay in the center whenever the form is resized or maximized? I have tried using anchor but the buttons and textboxes ended up getting stretched.

View 10 RepliesI have a program for school project that has input fields for Name, Address, City, State and Zip. I need to error check so that the fields are not empty.I have used If statements that check to see if the fields are empty and shows a message box if they are but if I leave the whole form empty and click the button that activates it, all the if statements go- one by one instead of pausing for the user to input the required data.How do I check for data and make the program stay there until the data is input? I have tried TRY/CATCH but it won't catch this type of error.

View 2 RepliesHo can you make a dynamic label stay right justified, so that when the label.text is filled the text starts at the right edge of the label and fills to the left? Currently the text fills to the right from the left edge of the labels location and tends to run off the form.

I have a modal popup I am displaying with jQuery, this popup contains a list of Checkboxes and a Button, the code looks like:
<div id="dialog" title="Notify Users" >
<div style="width:100%; height:500px; overflow:auto;">
<asp:CheckBoxList ID="chkNotify"
[Code].....
I have tried moving the CheckBoxList to just inside the form tag so that no other styles can be applied and nothing should affect it however I still get the same issue.

View 1 RepliesWell, in IE at the bottom right, the gray 5 fot looking things help you resize it down there, and stay there even after you maximize the window. When I make a form on VB and all, then maximize the window, it disappears on mine, but stays there every other time, except for while maximized, IE does it, so how do I make my program do it so it will stay there even when maximized? I have tried lengthy work-arounds and such, cause if its at correct size and location, and you maximize it stays, but I cant seem to find out when u maximize to over-ride it, so it'll work right.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make a little game using VB .NET 2008 Express Edition.The game is comparable to the Everybody Votes channel on the Nintendo Wii (if anyone has ever seen it). You can submit questions to a online database. Then, if the question is accepted, users can vote on it and other accepted questions. The questions are on a timer and when it hits a certain point (after a couple of days or so), the questions can no longer be voted on and the results are displayed. Since the details of the users account, the questions and the results would be in a database online, the program would also track some fun little aspects of their voting habits and stuff.
Onto my question though, how difficult would it be to pull something like this off? Especially for someone with no experience using an online database with VB .NET? I'm not foreign to the basics of VB .NET by any means, I've taken several courses with it in college and worked with offline Access databases, but taking it online is something completely new to me.
I was looking at this example: Basic TCP Communication I was really amazed by this piece of code however it only works in WLAN. I was thinking if its possible to make the same program over internet not the same router but which can be connected to two different countries or any other place except the same network?
Actually I have created a very simple game called whack a mole. In which buttons appear and the user has to click it before it disappears. however I am trying to make it multiplayer over the internet even if i have to create a server from my PC. I dont know if its even possible. The other player should also get the same screen as the user who hosted the game just like real time.

View 9 RepliesI have made a program with a main Form and several auxilary forms. Is it possible to modify the auxilary form in a way like a msgbox. It stays always in focus, and you cannot interact with the main form. What I did find was the Form.enabled (True or False) method, but then the main form completely greys out, but I don't like the way it looks.

How can I make it so that when I re-size my program all my buttons and text boxes move with it. I don't know how to explain it, but it's like if I have a button in the center of my form and I re-size my form I want my button to stay centered not just have the form stretch out.
